Variable Sized Arrays
Problem Statement :
Consider an n - element array, a, where each index i in the array a contains a reference to an array of Ki integers (where the value Ki of varies from array to array). See the Explanation section below for a diagram. Given a , you must answer q queries. Each query is in the format i j, where i denotes an index in array a and j denotes an index in the array located at a[i] . For each query, find and print the value of element j in the array at location a[i] on a new line. Input Format The first line contains two space-separated integers denoting the respective values of n (the number of variable-length arrays) and q (the number of queries). Each line i of n the subsequent lines contains a space-separated sequence in the format k a[i]0 a[i]1 … a[i]k-1 describing the k-element array located at a[i]. Each of the q subsequent lines contains two space-separated integers describing the respective values of i (an index in array ) and j (an index in the array referenced by a[i] ) for a query. Constraints 1 <= n <= 10^5 1 <= q <= 10^5 1 <= k <= 3 * 10^5 0 <= i < n 0 <= j < k All indices in this challenge are zero-based. All the given numbers are non negative and are not greater than 10^6. Output Format For each pair of i and j values (i.e., for each query), print a single integer that denotes the element located at index j of the array referenced by a[ i ]. There should be a total of q lines of output.
Solution :
Solution in C :
int n, q; cin >> n >> q;
int **v = new int*[n];
for(int j=0;j<n;j++){
int k; cin >> k;
v[j] = new int[k];
for(int i=0;i<k;i++){
int x; cin >> x;
v[j][i] = x;
}
}
for(int i=0;i<q;i++){
int a, b; cin >> a >> b;
cout << v[a][b]<<endl;
}
return 0;
}

Balanced Brackets
A bracket is considered to be any one of the following characters: (, ), {, }, [, or ]. Two brackets are considered to be a matched pair if the an opening bracket (i.e., (, [, or {) occurs to the left of a closing bracket (i.e., ), ], or }) of the exact same type. There are three types of matched pairs of brackets: [], {}, and (). A matching pair of brackets is not balanced if the set of bra

ou have three stacks of cylinders where each cylinder has the same diameter, but they may vary in height. You can change the height of a stack by removing and discarding its topmost cylinder any number of times. Find the maximum possible height of the stacks such that all of the stacks are exactly the same height. This means you must remove zero or more cylinders from the top of zero or more of

Alexa has two stacks of non-negative integers, stack A = [a0, a1, . . . , an-1 ] and stack B = [b0, b1, . . . , b m-1] where index 0 denotes the top of the stack. Alexa challenges Nick to play the following game: In each move, Nick can remove one integer from the top of either stack A or stack B. Nick keeps a running sum of the integers he removes from the two stacks. Nick is disqualified f
